View allI'm a bit worried because my period is late by 4 days this month, even though they've been regular before. Last month, my period started on September 2nd, but I had dengue then and maybe because of the fever or weakness, my flow was really low. Do you think there's something wrong or should I be concerned? Could you give me some advice on what to do next?
It's not uncommon for your menstrual cycle to be slightly delayed after an illness like dengue, as it can affect your hormones and overall health. If the delay is only a few days and there are no other concerning symptoms, it should be okay, but if the delay continues or you experience unusual symptoms, it might be worth consulting your doctor for reassurance.

I've been dealing with a bartholin cyst that's gotten way bigger in the last 3 days and it's making sitting and moving really uncomfortable. This is the third time in 2 years but it usually goes away on its own this time it's much worse. I read about surgical draining but want to avoid that if possible. What can I do to ease this and why do these keep happening?
surgery opinion is advised to the patient.

My wife and I got married last month but we haven't been able to have sex because her hymen is too thick. Every time we try, it's really painful for her. We've tried multiple times but it's not working. Is there a specialist who can help remove or break the hymen surgically or through some other procedure?
please consult your gynecologist.
